He's backing it up with the appropriate 'walk' as well, as detailed by steps and actions he's outlined in the post. We don't know if he will fail or succeed, but you can't deny he is also actively trying. So really, he has already taken the metaphorical page from Envy. We have to give things time to play out. 3) Like you've said yourself; there IS a need for him to explain himself. You can interpret Fluff's post as simply needy, or you can also understand that there is no doubt many of us who want clarification on certain matters affecting the team as a whole. This spotlight, for better or worse, shines on the entire team as much as it does on Fluff himself. To imply Fluff's post serves only himself would indicate tunnel vision about the whole situation. Although on the surface this is an apology from Fluff, it is also a PR statement for his team and liquid as an organisation as well. Fluff's post is part explanation about himself and part the collective voice of his team clarifying their intent, future and direction together. Actions are powerful, but that's not to discount the importance of 'talk'/explanations/clarifications. The two are not mutually exclusive. It is better that they go hand in hand as it minimises the scope of speculation and conjecture and really serves as a rallying force and voice for those who do support liquid. In any case, I'm glad it's all sorted out. Fight on, Fluff! Fight on, Liquid! This. This 1000%. All their losses and failures in the last couple of months have really demoralized and almost alienated their supporters it seemed (i.e., me). This might have been a mess at the beginning, and it might have hurt some people in the process although not deliberately, but nazgul's response and fluff manning up to it has at least shed light to the teams struggles, and it is very comforting to know that they are taking MASSIVE steps to curbing the problems. Good luck everyone, and yes, see you guys in TI4. | ||

Best of luck. I hope you prove me wrong. And I think maybe you should consider not writing blogs wherein you describe what you intend to do - you're just making unrealistic goals for us and for yourself. | ||

because imagine you were kicked? what would you do? who wants some not that skilled guy (compared to the big skillers in NA,EU and especially china) who is all about being the savior of his team leading them to glory with visions and epic leadership to stand there and smile in his shiny armor. for me most of this blog is just damage control like people always do when they are closed to being kicked.and of course your typical 1000 promises and ideas that will revolutionize EVERYTHING. how about just the damage control apology and instead of the rest you just show actions? you know like real actions, making your team own and not your old habits. not things like "will do this, and that,sacrifces here there and bridges! communication,best version of team EVA.". like i said thank god everyday and get your shit together. best of luck for your team | ||

But, maybe, in the end, it will turn out to have been a good decision to post what you did before. What if the team as a whole would have been unable to get the motivation/boost required to achieve a TI4 victory from purely internal "decent" & "by the book" communications? Sometimes a child (a new team) needs a good kick in the arse to get going properly. The way you guys are dealing with your previous outburst makes me think that this is exactly what needed to be done. Like some people say: sometimes you need to act now and ask for permission later. There are more ways and potentionally better ways to phrase this, I will refrain from trying to find them all. I am sure people have said this before. | ||

You've certainly grown up in the past few days, hopefully this will soon reflect in TL's gameplay. Cheers and GoodLuck! | ||
